Autoimmune diseases are characterized by the presence of autoantibodies against autoantigens that induce inflammatory responses that damage tissues and organs, leading to leading to irreversible disturbances [1]. Autoimmune responses attack a specific organ, or tissue in an early phase and after becoming multisystemic [1]. Some autoimmune diseases are related to previous exposure to pathogens [2, 3]. Molecular mimicry between antigens from pathogens and humans is considered a key factor involved in triggering the autoimmune response [4, 5].
